I met an angel today,
With eyes that could see God.
She used all the time she had
she did all that she could.
With only a few years,
she changed the world around her.
With intelligence in her face
it was as though she knew.
I met an angel yesterday,
With words that healed scars
Then, so suddenly
she was taken away from us
fast, just like a band-aid.
Because she wouldn't want to suffer for us.
And now, we go on
living the lives she set for us.
